Dear Naveen, One should understand the context of our recommendation about selection of different brand inverter and battery. Microtek inverters are one the best sellers and top quality product in the market, but microtek batteries are not the best sellers in the battery market. Dear Krishna, As your daily power cut duration is little longer than normal, we would like to recommend double battery pure sine wave inverter for better backup and quick battery recharge.

Just go for VA Pure sinewave inverter with two 88 ah batteries, you could also choose two IT batteries, if you dont have any budget constraints.

Dear Arjun, If you want to run this all gadgets simultaneously with your inverter during power shedding, we would recommend 3. If you plan to limit your usage by excluding your 1. But best suitable for normal use with tube light, fans and other non sensitive household electronic gadgets. Not only APC, but also all other leading inverter brands in India uses latest battery charging technology to ensure better battery life.

From your above posts i believe Exide va Inverter is a good one but it is not available where i live. I inquired around and i have made a list of the available inverters and batteries and its prices.

Please help me choose a good inverter and a battery which is economical and has a long life. Luminous va -Rs. Hi I read many of your comments which seems very impressive.

So thought of taking your help in my decision to take new Inverter and battery for my 4 room home. Dealer is offering Rs rs for this package. After going through your comments it seems that MicroTek invertors has an edge over other brands. In battery it seems Exide Inva T batteries Rs has an edge. But at the same time I heard that for better performance it is recommended to have same brand of Inverter and Battery. Now the Qs is: What should be my preference as per quality and cost.

Hi, I am planning to buy an inverter. What would it cost at Chennai? I am looking for an inverter and battery for my home appliances. Iwould like to power 7 tube lights ,4 fans,1 TV and 1 plug point for mixer grinder. Can you let me know is my selection is ok or not? Am Confused to buy a invertor. I have read many of your above comments,Highly appreciated. Very helpful. But still need your expert opinion. I stay in Thane-Maharashtra.

I need at least 3 to 4 hours of back up time. So the questions are as below. A ah battery would handle your load preference flawlessly, we also recommend Exide ah Invertor plus model battery with 2 years full warranty for prolonged and trouble-free performance. Need to know which battery to choose for this inverter.

So that we can have maximum backup for 3 fans and 2 tubes. Regards Prabhjeet. Dear Rajeev, Your selection is good, but you cannot operate refrigerator with basic single battery inverter.

Is inva smart better ah than Exide Inva tubular IT ? I read rave reviews about IT in this forum so curious to know. Sukam shiny va inverter pure sine wave — Rs. Considering worst case senatio i calcuted as per ur given formula that i need ah battery.

I know Exide Inva tubular may be best but IT ah is costing around which is little expensive. Please can you advise if above combi of Okaya Battery n Exide invertor is good? Okaya is good, but Exide Invertor Plus semi tubular is bettery choice in terms of longevity and maintenance.

What may be life expectancy of Invertor plus ah? Reason i am asking is it has 24 mths replacement warranty while Okaya Tubular comes with 30 mths replaement warranty Also do tall tubular batteries in general last longer as i see most of them having more replacement warranty as compared to wider tubular batteries of same brand? Is it generally better to go for battery with a few AH more then our requirement to reduce chances of full discharge?

Going for ah battery is up to you, we would recommend ah Inva smart or ah Mega inva for better life and performance. Hi Admin, Once again thanks for helping me decide and make better choice.

Thanks you and have a great day ahead! Regards, Naren. NO big difference in total cost. But double battery inverter with two 88ah batteries has so many advantages. Quick charging ability Could handle double the load of va inverter Useful during power cuts more than 15hrs per day. Hi Admin, Sorry for bugging you my quesiton again but probably this is the only way for me to make a best choice hope you dont mind the same. I think i am somewhat getting it now, however I still have some confusions and will greatly appreciate if you can answer all my below 5 questions which can hopefully clear my remaining doubts and help me make a choice soon.

Thanks a ton for your help, patiance and williness to share knoweldge in advance! Dear Naren, We recommend double battery inverter if you face intermittent and long power cuts like 15 hrs power shedding per day. Use inverter in HC high charge mode if you face power cut more than 6 hours per day. But in HC mode, your battery will lose water rapidly and you need to top up distilled water once per month.

In normal mode your battery will stay cool and no frequent water toppings required. But the backup time will be low compared to high charge mode. Inva tubular batteries are capable of accepting high charge current whereas semi tubular batteries have certain limitations in charge current. Battery life is decided by the number of full charge cycles, it differs according to your situation.

So it is difficult to predict its life. Thank you so much for explaining all this in a plain simple english n making it relatively easy to decide what may make most sense to buy…. C5,C10,C20 I read about it a little bit but dint fully understand its importance for deciding Battery for invertor.

IT is C20 rated, form what i read i think only if IT battery is continuously used for 20 hours only then one can draw the power back up of AH.. However there is one issue…the opening to loft only Is it ok to tilt the battery at the time of placing it on loft or it can result in battery water getting leaked or battery getting damaged?

Dear Naren, Choosing ah battery for your present power cut cut scenario will give you extended battery life, no doubt! About battery usage: You will get good backup time with ah battery if you limit your concurrent usage under watt. Exide VA will support Exide IT, actually Exide va inverter is the most perfect model suitable for ah battery.

The reason is Exide inverter only has 3 modes for charge current selection and high charge current of its class. You can tilt the battery during installation, no problem with it. But make sure the vent caps are fastened perfectly and no acid spills. I need some serious help!!! Dear Naren, Fan speed difference is normal in battery mode. You need yo check your AC mains voltage and inverter output voltage in battery mode. I think your mains voltage grid power is above v , so your are experiencing fan speed reduction in battery mode.

Plz suggest a good tubular battery for VA Microtek inverter. I will need two of them and want to be perfect at the first time itself.

Also, please help me understand its back-up time and elecricity that it will consume. Exide IT ah tall tubular — If you want sturdy Tall Tubular battery with life expectancy of 5 years, we would recommend this battery, but it is expensive though, it would cost around Rs.

Price — Rs. Exide Invertor Plus 88 ah battery — Rs. Dear Naren, As i already said, v is not a normal voltage level from grid. So you are experiencing some speed difference in battery mode. In battery mode, battery voltage will be slowly decrease as you continue to use the current saved in the battery, this is normal.

Dear Naren, Please post short questions, as we have only very little time to moderate these comments and post replies. Hope you understand. You could compare the inverter efficiency of leading inverter brands by visiting their official sites. They include this information in their product specs. Obviously, in high charge mode, most old batteries do not attain the certain cutoff voltage and the inverter keeps on charging the battery with high amp current, in this case our electricity bill might go up unusually.

Even a small voltage drop could switch your inverter to battery mode. Inverter does not consume any current for its functionality, it just convert AC to DC and saves it in battery. During power failure, it converts back the DC power saved in the Battery to AC power for our utility. Tubular batteries also emits flammable fumes during battery charging, even though the ceramic caps filter out the fumes, good ventilation is always recommended. Hello Admin I am having a VA microtek inverter.

Earlier I choose Microtek battery of AH with this inverter but I am not satisfied with the performance. I am now planning to buy a new battery. The seller is insisting me to buy luminous tubular inverlast AH battery. Will I get best performance with this combination. Kindly suggest with inverter of va I should use battery of how much AH? Dear Alok, We recommend luminous tubular inverlast AH battery for your va inverter. Will my invertor be able to charge it properly. You said in some post that invertors may not be able to charge big batteries, the combination should be good.

Dear Alok, va inverter would take a little longer to charge a ah battery compared to an va inverter, but still it is compatible with ah battery. Dear Raghav, We recommend sukam shiny pure sine wave inverter for better performance and good service.

Sukam shiny va inverter is a double battery inverter which could handle your load preference flawlessly. If you want to go for low cost branded battery with exceptional performance, we recommend Exide Inva smart ah battery. But a printer would consume much more current compared to Laptop. If you plan to use the printer continuously during power cut hours, then we would recommend to go for.

Advanced Battery charging time which increased battery life. Luminous has got good LCD display which show how many backup hours left for utilization which is missing in sukam invertor. Both has got MCB and overload protection. Sort by date Sort by votes. Been using mine for over 5 years and it is very very good. I use it for my audio and have no complaints in the switch over - as the Emerson unit constantly powers the audio rig via its battery.

This means that there are no fluctuations in the Volatage and I also get a constant 50hz cycle Usually in Gurgaon the cycles at only Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk.
